frequent lagging issues

Pros

The communication is easy and it's great for tracking both time and project details.

Cons

It can be pretty slow, it doesn't handle different timezones well and it often glitches with comments and attachments, duplicating them randomly. There are also very few fields we can customize and some fields we don't need can't be removed.

Useful but has small annoyances

Pros

It's definitely helped us manage our workflows though I think a few of the processes could still be improved.

Cons

There are some small annoyances. Support isn't the easiest to get ahold of and you can't download multiple files at once unless they're in a zip folder. Getting in touch with the team can be a frustrating process.

Great for team accountability

Pros

Magnetic is a really useful tool for our marketing team. We can easily generate reports and share them with everyone in the agency. At any given moment, the whole team knows who's responsible for what on a project and all activity is tracked so leaders always know who is accountable.

Cons

Sometimes it seems like job bags haven't been saved properly but I think that might be a common issue with this type of software.
